I’ve never seen the ‘House of Hardcore’ so full.  It looks like standing room only tonight, so maybe Ian wasn’t lying on the last show when he talked about 400 people being in the crowd for this. Wolf responds to Morton calling him a “pussy”, although forgets to hold the microphone close to his mouth so we don’t hear his comeback.  The fans find it amusing so it must’ve been a good ‘un.  One thing I’ve noticed recently is how many wrestlers are incapable of throwing a decent looking punch.  Add Mark Wolf to that list.  The two take it in turns to punch each other before swinging hell for leather.  Wolf does drop him, but then immediately falls to the mat himself.  After trading in the ring they trade on the floor, Morton getting the better of that exchange.  Back inside and the repeated blows open Wolf up.  They return to the outside where Morton, who is also bleeding now, pummels Wolf some more.  Morton accidentally punches the ringpost when Wolf ducks his shot and the comeback is on, Wolf beating him all the way around ringside.  That was great.  As it looks like Wolf has got things under control, Morton pulls out a chain, wraps it around his fist and KO’s him for the pin.  Not done he then grabs a chair which he brings down over the back and into the ribs of Wolf, Cash Flo, Corporal Robinson and Suicide Kid running him off out of there. 

Well they certainly made use of the taped fist stipulation, as this consisted of almost nothing but punches, which did start to become repetitive.  Wolf’s comeback was great though and Morton realising he was in trouble resorts to cheating at the earliest opportunity to get the job done.   The closing minute or so made it worth sticking with.
